What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (5, 2) and (3,-1)?

1 answer:

3 0

Slope = -4/5

to calculate the slope m use the gradient form

m = y2 -y1
————
x2 - x1

let (x1, y1) = (3,1) and (x2, y2) = (-2, 5)

m = 5 - 1 4
———- = ——-
-2 - 3 -5

= - 4/5

Answer: Each donor donated $70.5 per lap.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. If she got 8 donors and each one of them sponsored 5 laps, then the total number of laps was:

$(8)(5)=40$ laps

2. Hailey raised a total of $2,820, therefore, you can calculate the amount of money donated by each donor (which you can call $x$ ) by dividing $2,820 by 40 laps, as you can see below:

$x=\frac{2,820}{40}\\x=70.5$

On what interval is the function h(x) = |x − 5| + 2 increasing?

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an absolute value function, and since it is positive, it will decrease to its point as it comes in from the left and then increase from its point as it goes on to the right. The vertex of this function sits at (5, 2). This means that the function is increasing from an x value of 5 all the way up to infinity.
